I've lost the Quick Memo (or whatever it's called) app - LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey gang,
I'm on a rooted Tmobile variant and I just recently noticed I don't have the Quick Memo app. It seems like it's called something else now but basically the same thing. I've not done anything other than rooting. I froze some apps but I went back into Titanium Backup just to be sure anything that could even remotely have disabled the app was defrosted. I found (what appears to be) the app in the system. I installed it via the apk... Checked the permissions etc. It just doesn't seem to be workin. I know it was before I rooted it last week..... Weird... Any thoughts on this?
Anyone had the same issue?

Try going to about phone option under settings and select update center. Select app updates and see if it's installed there.

Can't install 3rd party apps/whatever

I'm on my 2nd EVO 3d I love it but having the same problem. Both times I got Amazon app store downloaded then installed plus I installed a few of my free apps I got. It downloads fine but now once I try to install anything it won't let me select install just the cancel button. It's not grayed out or nothing. I have the non market box checked obviously cuz I installed other stuff. Both phones worked fine for about 2 days then stopped. My first once i had tunein radio installed and deleted it and try to reinstall it just to see and nope couldn't get it. Any help I would really appreciate it

I also have this problem using the amazon appstore, i can download them but cant install them
I figured out a solution but it sucks. I googled it and someone with a Nexus S was having the same problem and he eventually found out that Screen Filter was the cause. I had it downloaded on both phones I deleted it last night and now I can install non market apps wallpaper anything. Kinda sucks and annoying now without the Screen Filter app tho that that the bottom 4 lights are always on now

Usage Monitor disappeared!

My wife and I both have Rezounds. I went to show her the Usage Monitor so she could track her minutes, and its not in her App Drawer. Titanium Backup shows it as installed though. I've tried to freeze and defrost it in an effort to make it come back, but it didn't work. Any suggestions?
Look at settings - power - battery usage.

Appreciate the reply, but I think you misunderstood. The Rezound comes with an app that lets you track your minutes/text/data usage so you don't go over your monthly allowance. I'm not looking to track battery usage.
Go to your widgets its not an app.

No, what the op is referring to is an app, not a widget.
Op try clearing cache and restarting. If that doesn't work...try a different launcher and see if that gets the app to show up in the app drawer. If that doesn't work, I'd look at getting adb running and shell in to the system to see if u can see the app listed in /system/app, if so copy it to the sdcard and try installing it on the phone from there.
Otherwise, worst case scenario, a restore.

I had this issue on my incredible 2 running sense 3.5 roms. If you have Verizon my mobile app installed it overwrites or hides the usage monitor app.
If you uninstall Verizon my mobile and restart the rezound usage monitor will show up.
I just tried it and it worked. The one Dev I mentioned it to back on the inc2 hypothesized that the apks are similar and thus causes the stock usage app to disappear.

Hi, I am bit confuse. Do you install Verizon my mobile app youself? I think it do come with the Rezound by default. Do you root the device or all stock?

Self deleting app and sound settings issues

So, every time my phone restarts or reboots the XDA developer app that I have installed deletes itself completely off of my phone. I just performed a factory reset hoping it fixed all the issues but it hasn't. Is it the app or my phone? I don't get it. The XDA icon.stays in the folder but if I click on it all it says is the app is not installed...
Also, my ringtone and notification sounds reset after a restart...

That sounds like a phone thing. How apps and settings are getting installed and removed upon a reboot (or crash?) I'm not sure, but definitely not normal.
I got a replacement phone and both of these issues are still there. It must be the software. Can anyone install the XDA Developers app from Google Play, restart and then see if it deleted itself? There's no way I just got two buggy phones. I reported these issues to HTC.

[Q] After 4.1.2 update, phone is announcing out loud who is calling and who is textin

I used voodoo to backup my root, updated to 4.1.2 and then re-rooted... working fine. Then, just yesterday, all of a sudden, my phone has started announcing who is calling and texting me. "Text from XXXXXX" "Call From XXXXX".
I checked to make sure I dont have driving mode on, which I do not. I have no idea how to turn this off. I have not downloaded any new apps.
Anyone have a clue? Thanks in advance.

I'd first check out the accessibility section of the phone settings to see if the Talk Back service is enable. It's possible if you accepted the OTA that your carrier may have enabled this feature by default.
Secondly, I'd check to see if you have your account set to auto update your downloaded apps? It's possible if you have your account set to update apps automatically that an app that you have on your phone was updated and now provides the ability to speak aloud who is calling and texting by default.
My talk back service is off, however my atuo update is on. Is there anyway to see which apps were just recently updated?
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda app-developers app
It depends on if you have Titanium Backup or not. If you don't have Titanium Backup, then you can look at the main page of each suspect app individually from within the play store and it should tell you the last time it was updated at the end of the description section of the app.
Do you know if I download it know, will it still tell me? Or would I would have had to had it installed at the time of the app update?

He mentioned that he already checked that in his original post.
I found the culprit. It was an app called Mr Number. Its for call blocking calls and texts. Thanks for all the responses

Can't install or update non play store apps

Every time I try to install an app the page pops up with the cancel and install buttons, when I hit cancel it works but when I hit install nothing happens as if it's not even a button. I install non market apps all the time and I've never had problems so I am lost as to what I'm supposed to do but it's really annoying and I need to fix it.

Simply push the APK to /data/app and restart your device.
Did you recently install a screen dimmer or any app that overlays a mask on the screen? If you did then disable it first and then try installing whatever apks your trying to install.
No I don't currently I heard about that though, about two months ago I had lux auto brightness installed and had no problem but it's gone now and I've had no problem until now
